Education for Equity and Justice Majors and Minors

UW-Eau Claire and the department of education for equity and justice provides many options for your teaching career. Choose the major or minor that interests you and start preparing to apply for licensure to teach in the state of Wisconsin.

I love being a Blugold because from the minute I started my freshman year, the Eau Claire campus felt like home! The professors here at UWEC want students to succeed, and I have felt supported and challenged to be the best student I can be. There are so many opportunities being a Blugold has to offer, and I have taken full advantage of them — studying abroad, becoming an RA, and volunteering as a campus ambassador.
